Overgrown


I lived in this house from 1944 to 1947.  It looked like the black and white photo then.
Today it is in total disrepair.
The bushes hide the house but the roof is damaged and the whole place
needs paint.

I wish it had stayed in our family. Built by the McCandless family
when there was nothing north of 12th Street but wheat fields.

  2. I'll bet it was a beauty, in its day. Too bad it was allowed to deteriorate.

  3. It's lovely............I hate to think that somebody didn't love it enough to take care of it.
